Logical Vs. Legal 


After having failed his exam in a Student goes and confronts his lecturer about it.
 
Student: "Sir, do you really understand anything about the subject?"
 
Professor: "Surely I must. Otherwise I would not be a professor!"
 
Student: "Great, well then I would like to ask you a question. If you Can give me the correct answer, I will accept my mark as is and go. If You however do not know the answer, I want you give me an "A" for the
Exam. "
 
Professor: "Okay, it's a deal. So what is the question?"
 
Student: "What is legal, but not logical, logical, but not legal, and Neither logical, nor legal?"
 
Even after some long and hard consideration, the professor cannot give The student an answer, and therefore changes his exam mark into an "

 "A", as agreed.

Afterwards, the professor calls on his best student and asks him the Same question.

He immediately answers: "Sir, you are 63 years old and married to a 35 Year old woman, which is legal, but not logical.

Your wife has a 25 Year old lover, which is logical, but not legal. The fact that you Have given your wife's lover an "A", although he really should have Failed, is neither legal, nor logical."

Not a good bet, no way, no how.

Here is one for you;

Socrates the Great Philosopher

---

In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day an acquaintance met the great philosopher and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about your friend?"

"Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test". "Triple filter?" "That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say.

The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?" "No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and ..." "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's true or not.

Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?" "No, on the contrary ..."

"So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?" "No, not really."

"Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"


This is why Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem. It also explains why he never found out his best friend was screwing his wife.

Pirates,

That's a real good one, one note it is somewhat related, sort of. I am still in contact with many of my ex college mates, the ones who were best at college with best grades  etc have the least income at present and the ones who weren't very committed and spent less time studying have the best  present income and their own establishments or companies. I was and still in the middle.
